NannyTax℠

EisnerAmper’s Private Client Services Group offers its unique NannyTax^SM household employment tax service to help you comply with tax filing requirements for your domestic employees. These employees can include—but are not limited to—nannies, caregivers, tutors, personal drivers, and buildings and grounds employees.

NannyTax is the ideal solution for those family offices or high-net-worth individuals employing various household employees. For those who pay household employees individually more than $2,100 per annum (or more than $500 in any quarter), there is usually a need to file several federal tax forms as well as quarterly tax forms with your state. Care must be used to determine whether the individual is an independent contractor or an employee. This is important as federal, state, and locally imposed tax penalties for misreporting an individual’s status can be significant.

NannyTax provides complete tax compliance services, from assistance in obtaining federal identification numbers and Social Security numbers, to preparing quarterly and annual tax filings. To take advantage of our NannyTax services, employers simply need to provide an employee payroll record each quarter. NannyTax relieves taxpayers of the numerous federal, state, and local tax compliance activities and the more than 20 potential government filings that could occur each year—saving you valuable time, money and worry.
